I recently participated in this Fast Company roundtable interview about political cartooning in a broken media landscape. I have to say, the sample art that they chose from my comic for the feature image is perfectly timed.
what a great article - though depressing - thanks for sharing.

By popular demand, a single post to boost global switch day across multiple platforms on February 1st 2025.โฉ
For those who can no longer get behind Musk or Meta's new policies and feel like switching (e.g. from #Whatsapp to #Signal, from #Instagram to #Pixelfed or from #X to #Mastodon) I made you some graphics to use freely in communicating with your contacts.
Letโs lead by example ๐

My very first personal computer. BK 0010-01 (BK 0010 has a membrane keyboard, mine had a mechanical one). Specs:
32Kb memory, 4MHz CPU, 16bit Q-Bus... I had two 5in floppy disk drives connected to it, monitor and a dot matrix printer. I loved it. Part of me wishes I still had it. It didn't have a BIOS per-se, but it had an analog - 8kb of 32 were used as a BIOS.

Iโve had my eye on this project for some time now. We need a good alternative to VSCode.
VSCodium and Code OSS are fine for the most part, but some extensions, such as the CSharp extensions, wonโt work without effort. And who knows for how long until M$ makes it near impossible to use outside of VSCode.
Iโm currently using JetBrains Rider, but that has telemetry force-enabled for the community version.
